A British court on Thursday ordered Julian Assange, the
founder of WikiLeaks, to be extradited to Sweden where he is
accused of sexually abusing two women last year.
Swedish prosecutors say that Mr. Assange, a 39-year-old
Australian, must return to Stockholm to face accusations by
two women who say that he sexually abused them last August.
Calling the charges "incredible lies," Mr. Assange and his
lawyers have signaled their intent to appeal to Britain's
highest courts, and even to the European Court of Human
Rights. The judge in the case said Mr. Assange had seven days
to appeal his ruling.
